Baisogala

[2] Baisogala is first mentioned in written sources in 1539 when King Sigismund I the Old established a parish with seat in the town.

[4] In the 17th century, the town was granted to the Radvila family and changed hands a few times.

[4] Eventually, the town was bought in 1830 by Joseph Komar, a former colonel of Napoleon Bonaparte.

The church in the present location was built in 1781 and rebuilt in 1882 with financial support from the Komar family.

[3] In 2024, the government signed a deal with a German defence company Rheinmetall to build an artillery ammunition plant.
